Title: Portable tunnel warning instrument
Inventor: HARNISCHMACHER FRIEDHELM
IPC: E21F17/18
Filed: 1988-11-12
Abstract: A portable tunnel warning instrument (10) for underground use in zone H and/or zone "O" has a device for picking up, processing and indicating tunnel signals detected by at least one sensor. A battery supply (27, 28) is accommodated in the tunnel warning instrument (10). It has an outer housing (13) of increased safety with a first housing section (11) in which the battery supply (27, 28) inserted in a sand-filled battery housing (26) is accommodated and which contains a switch (44) which is encapsulated in a pressure-resistant manner and can be actuated by the battery housing (26) during insertion or removal of the same. Furthermore, the outer housing (13) has a second housing section which is separated from the first housing section (11) by an intermediate wall (14) and in which devices for picking up, processing and indicating the tunnel signals are accommodated and which is itself sand-encapsulated. The leads between the two housing sections are passed through the intermediate wall (14) in a pressure-resistant manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A slant plate type compressor (10) including a compressor housing (20) having a cylinder block is disclosed. A plurality of cylinders (70) are formed around the periphery of the cylinder block and a piston (71) is slidably fitted within each of the cylinders and is reciprocated by a drive mechanism. A crank chamber (22) is formed between the cylinder block (21) and a front end plate (23) of the compressor housing (20). The drive mechanism includes a drive shaft (26) rotatably supported in the compressor housing, a rotor coupled to the drive shaft and rotatable therewith, and a coupling mechanism for drivingly coupling the rotor to the pistons such that the rotary motion of the rotor is converted into reciprocating motion of the pistons. The coupling mechanism includes a plate (50) having a surface disposed at a slant angle relative to the drive shaft (26). The slant angle changes in response to a change in pressure in the crank chamber (22) to change the capacity of the compressor. The compressor housing (20) includes a rear e plate (24) including suction and discharge chambers (241, 251). A communication path (195) communicates the crank chamber (22 and the suction chamber (241). A valve control mechanism (19 controls the opening and closing of the communication path cause a change in pressure in the crank chamber. A flow control mechanism (183, 184) formed in the cylinder block admits reduced discharge gas pressure to the crank chamber (22) the discharge chamber (251) to control the crank chamber pressure which controls the slant angle of the slant plate (50).

Abstract: The invention provides a text processing device, comprising an alphanumerical keyboard, a translation device, a read/write memory and a display device. Given, frequently occurring words can be entered in abbreviated form. Words of a main set are entered by way of a sequence of two or more key strokes. At least the first two thereof each define a word part to be separately pronounced, for example, in that they constitute the first letters of respective syllables. The full word is formed by the translation device in that each time at least one missing letter is inserted between two successively entered letters. By also providing one or more smaller auxiliary sets of abbreviations, the overall saving as regards the number of key strokes required is increased.

Abstract: Unsaturated polyester resins in the form of dough or sheet moulding compositions can be cured by the application of heat and pressure using an organic peroxide initiator. To reduce residence time of the resin in the mould, the resin can be pre-heated, but if the pre-heat temperature approaches the curing temperature too closely, premature curing occurs and this problem would occur at much lower temperatures if an accelerator were to be incorporated, which is why, in practice they have not been used. 
     The invention provides accelerators such as transition metal compounds, including cobalt naphthenate or octoate, or tertiary amines in microencapsulated form, the capsules releasing the accelerator under the heat and pressure conditions pertaining in the curing step. Suitable wall materials include urea/formaldehyde condensates applied from aqueous acidic solution or polyamide or styrene/DVB or methyl methacrylate polymerised at the interface with an aqueous phase containing a catalyst or natural polymers such as gelatin/gum arabic, applied by a coacervation technique. 
     The invention also provides processes for curing such resins together with an organic peroxide that preferably is also microencapsulated. 
     As an additional benefit, the invention improves the storage stability of resin compositions containing accelerator and organic peroxide.

Title: Remote services console for digital data processing system.
Inventor: WU HUIFENG E
IPC: H04M11/06
Filed: 1987-12-16
Abstract: A remote services console for transferring communications data among a console port and communications port of a digital data processing system, the system console and a remote services center which provides remote maintenance and diagnostic services. The remote services console operates in three operating modes. In one mode, communications data is transmitted directly between the communications port and the remote services center and between the console port and the console terminal. In a second operating mode, communications data is transmitted between the console port and the remote services center through a microprocessor, the microprocessor being able to insert protocol data into the communications data transmitted to the remote services center and stripping the protocol data from the communications data received from the remote services center. The protocol data serves to ensure proper transmission of communications data to and from the remote services center. Under some circumstances the communications data may be copied to the console terminal, and the console terminal may transmit communications data to the remote services center through the microprocessor. In a third operating mode, communications are effected between the communications port and the remote services center through the microprocessor.

The apparatus (12) includes a plurality of diverting arms within a single filing area formed between two plate members (19) having apertures formed therein so that air expelled through the apertures causes movement of conveyed articles not then in single file toward a peripheral guide member and movement of articles then in single file adjacent to the guide member in a direction through the single lining area substantially parallel to the guide member. The space diverting arms are pivotably mounted on a mounting plate and biased so that the article engaging portions of the arms are successively engagable with articles not then in single file adjacent to the guide member to thereby yieldably urge such articles into single file with the mounting plate also having apertures therein through which air is expelled to additionally urge the articles toward single file, and with those articles, not in single file when passing the arm positioned to last engage articles not then in single file, being ejected.
